Everyone needs a hobby, especially in these stressful times. I think I lost track of what makes me relax and indulge (other than shopping) as soon as I started working as I never had the time and then as soon as I had my kid, any thought of pursuing a hobby went out of the window.
There are so many different sorts of hobbies that one can easily persue – from the physical (sports, golf, rock climbing, hiking , skydiving, yoga. etc) to the home-based (gardening, cooking etc.) to the social (dancing, chess, tennis etc) to the creative (painting, drawing, acting, sewing, knitting, crochet, sculpting, woodwork etc.)
One of the things I enjoyed doing that got me out of my head was some sort of creative art therapy. And painting (not drawing) was one of them. I could do it at home and without too much investment. I could actually do it with my kiddo. But I never got to it till I found ‘Paint by Numbers’ painting kit online. It was simple, everything was provided for so I didn't have to source from different places.
As the name suggests you just have to match the number on the canvas to the corresponding paint and get going. No overthinking and stressing involved.
Pros:
Easy home delivery and everything needed is provided in the kit.
Hundreds of options to choose from.
Easy to follow.
You can do it in parts and no need to do all in one go. As colors dry quote fast.
Cons:
If you are a DIY kind of a person you wouldn't feel the challenge.
If you're looking for a way to keep your hands and mind busy while staying at home, something to fill your empty social schedule, or a delightful distraction from social media, ‘Paint by numbers’ kit could be your savior.
